Mission Statement

Our Mission is to enhance the quality of life for seniors by helping them maintain mobility, and their health and social connections as they age in place. We provide a free alternative to costly transportation options while affording community members, both seniors and others, meaningful volunteer opportunities and enabling seniors to remain in their homes longer.

Description

Transportation- We provide free transportation to seniors in our area to meet their basic and social needs. In calendar year 2014 provided approximately 1300 rides of which over 90% were medically related. We support over 15 volunteers that provide rides, with 80 to 100 seniors using the service.

Friendly calling- We provide a daily call, by trained volunteers, to seniors who are otherwise alone.

Senior Library- In partnership with the Olney library we assist in designing senior activities, and promoting and bringing seniors to these activities.

Friendly visiting- In partnership with Montgomery County Mental Health Association, we provide visits to seniors for friendship and socialization by specially trained volunteers.
